Why do we like this?

It's true! Yesterday we shared that The xx were dropping clues of new music on the horizon, and today it's here. Brand new choons from The xx. 

What's kinda funny to me is that "On Hold" sounds a lot like The Postal Service. Crazy, right? I would never have expected The xx to flash back more than a decade, but here we are: reliving the emo pop of the past.

I See You will be available on on January 13th, 2017.

All I can deduce at this point is that Vera is a girl named Sydney Païge. That d... read more →
